Ishant doing great job by hiding seam of ball and nearly took Paine's head off.

what a mental game, boycott-like batting for two days and only 7 wickets fall and then 15 in one day

this is going to be over quick. India embarrassing the Aussie team. How is it possible that Aus with such a good bowling attack got taken apart, and India aren't even swinging the ball yet have taken 4fer in a session. so much for a dead pitch that doomed the game to a draw. India will win from here with Australia having to follow on.

Aus batting has been beyond dire. Quite simply pujara and kohlis discipline has shown what was needed and Aus batsmen have been to shot happy

Bumrah was absolutely class - he was unlucky last test match with a lot of play and missed. The Aussie bowlers getting out bowled at home.

Another failure for mr Paine, he reminds me of those club cricketers you get - Lots of talk, yet they’re rubbish and often an embarrassment to their side.

That slower ball from Bumrah to get Shaun Marsh LBW is probably the test match ball of the year for me! It was pitch perfect. Great example of using the new gen skills effectively in a test match.

Bumrah’s the bowler India been looking for since Khan retired. He’s the leader of the attack. His accuracy is incredible considering he was a limited overs specialist before 2018 started.

Patrick Cummins really should be getting the new ball, he’s vastly more skilled than the overrated Starc and Hazlewood. And in all honesty Cummins and the injury prone Pattinson would be a seriously devastating opening combo

India eventually set Australia 399 to win. Cummins career best 6-27 and 9 in the match.

Bumrah gets Finch for 3. 6-1.

Picking players because they are 'good blokes' doesn't win you matches. Finch has no business in a test XI

Fish is disgusting. What a diabolical shot to play as a test match opener but especially when saving a test.

Aus are a shower of &££&)£&£

Now Harris has gone. ‘Harris was unlucky’ .. no he wasn’t . Men around the bat, battling to save the test.. rule one, do not play hard at the ball... yep, reached and failed and got caught

That’s not unlucky that’s poor technique and mentality

This could be over today with batting like this

Has anybody found anywhere to watch the highlights for this series that doesn’t involve paying for BT sport?

All the Aussie wickets are unlucky according to mark waugh etc. Pathetic commentary

Looks like M Marsh failed again too
Thought I would never see the day that the Aussies would be praying for rain

The Marsh brothers must have some serious dirt on the selectors.

Its funny that this time last year all the commentators were hailing the return of both Marsh brothers, funny how times have changed.

What really gets me about the Australian batting is just how bare the cupboard is.

I mean theoretically you could drop all of 1-6, apart from maybe Khawaja, who does have an ok record. Harris is just starting but doesn't look great.

I am interested to know what the Australian Forumites think the reasons are for this??

I know that Smith, Bancroft and Warner will come back that will change things alot. But Bancroft didn't pull up any trees in his fledgling career.
